There’s three stages of reactions I have with regards to blogs/people who are mostly dedicated to political and social justice stuff.
- Simple Agreement/Disagreement: Also known as the normal stage. This shouldn’t need explanation, but it’s basically your average reactio
- Annoyance: Now that you know that the guy you saw is a political type, you start seeing him everywhere. Mainly on reblogs and in the form of long and rambling paragraphs leading up to calling OP an idiot or some other Tumblr insult. And he starts getting repetitive and more aggressive over time and it becomes annoying as high hell. You wish they would fucking shut up once in a while and hate everything they talk about.
- Concern: But they never shut up, instead growing louder and more nonsensical in their responses to the point where you think that there’s something seriously wrong with them. Because you know, obsession is unhealthy. And you have to wonder if actively trying to be mad and reactionary to every political topic of the hour is really the sign of man who’s lost his way. He used to have a way with words and you wonder if he can ever recover from his battles. Return to his family. Retire happy. Maybe this is a plea for help. Maybe you should intervene. Send a little message, “Are you okay?”
And then he responds. “haha cry some more”
